This week I have had the absolute JOY of attending adoration almost everyday - sometimes I just need that extra Jesus time to get my faith train back on track.

If your Advent season is still a little spiritually flat - come to the source and submit of our faith, The Eucharist.

Prepare your heart this Advent by maybe attending an extra Mass or spending time in Adoration. Today is First Friday - many Churches will have Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament for at least part of the day. Not sure where there is one near you?

Use MassTimes.org to search for a Church holding adoration - or just fine one with the door open. Just doesn't have to be exposed in the Monstrance for your to uplifted by the grace present in the Sacrament. Oh and Yup that same great site you use for finding Mass is also useful in finding Adoration. Also it is not just for finding Sunday Masses -- need a daytime Mass that you can attend maybe during your lunch hour -- fire up the MassTimes.org site?

Speaking of Adoration - I am blessed to have two hours on my schedule today. I would like to extend that blessing to others by offering to bring your prayers and petitions with me before the Eucharist today ... So How can I Pray for you ??

We have 3 daughters, and I always thought that we were close (good), but as they have grown and are gone now, not so much. I love Christmas and this time of the year, but with all this I (we) are trying really hard, to be ok, but sometimes when it's really quiet or late at night I think and remember to much, and that's when it's the hardest I pray to God and talk with him, but I think I could really use your extra prayers, please And God Bless you and your family!

I can completely relate -- my oldest goes back an forth between practicing and ignoring his faith. I will absolutely bring this intention with me. Thanks for your blessing!
